Emergency Communications – Introducing ECHO

ECHO is the Emergency Communication for Home Occupants. EPIC-FSC has created a program for you to successfully navigate communications at the start of an emergency, during the event and throughout the recovery phase.

The first step is education. EPIC offers communication resources whereby you may schedule a visit with one of our experts to guide you through how you can purchase a radio and, more importantly, use your radio to maintain communication. In addition, we will also be including timely updates via our website as well as other sources.
